Mary Johnson is a USATF and VDOT certified running coach, owner of Lift.Run.Perform, mother of two under 3, and athlete. She's had the pleasure of coaching athletes of all levels and abilities - from sub-3 marathons to beginner 5ks. She believes in a slow progression and consistent communication between coach and athlete. Above all, she believes in meeting yourself where you are as an athlete, believing in yourself, and flourishing from there. She also wants to encourage more runners to shed their fear of the weight room, because a strong athlete is a strong (and fast!) runner.
